To me, Toothless is like a cat who has learned how to communicate with humans by using our own cues, in his own way. My partner's cat, Ryou, is one such cat. She knows our body language and vocal cues well enough that she can mimic them in her own way to get what she wants and convey her mood. She loterally uses different tones of chirps based on whether shes feeling bossy, cuddly, or in need of something. It helps that we both know a little bit about how cats communicate as well, and especially how both of our cats communicate compared to one another.
I think the riders & dragons have a similar kind of meet-in-the-middle communication style. They can't speak sentences to one another, but they can communicate their mood, needs, and ideas through body language that mimics human language, and that they know humans understand. Maybe, like cats, their casual chirps and chitters are something done more around humans than other dragons, as a means to be better understood. I think Toothless specifically is one who is both very good at it, and lucked out with an extremely observant & dedicated rider.

Even more dnd-inspired designs! You might recognize Hiccup from an old post, I redrew him to match my current style (this started as a game where I assigned not-first-choice classes to the characters, that's why he's a druid and not an artificer or smth else!)

In the spirit of Spring could you do Rosethorn? (from rise of berk). They're one of my favourite seasonal dragons.
Of course I can! :D She's so lovely, thank you for requesting her!
